Called the CCC from the beginning, the name was not officially changed until 1937. The CCC era technically ended on June 30, 1943, but all the camps and personnel had been disbanded and discharged by October 1942. One national emergency, the Great Depression, inspired the CCC while another, the nation’s entry into World War II, closed the CCC era.

  • A CCC company consisted of about 200 men, although several
    women’s camps existed in northeastern states, enrolling 8,500 women
    before being eliminated in 1937.
